  • Patent number: 11829331
    Abstract: A system for performing continuous transaction log backups with minimal resource usage of the client computing devices that are processing the transactions is disclosed. The system detects at least one input/output (I/O) activity at a client computing device. The I/O activity can be associated with at least one database operation performed via the client computing device. The system then executes one or more native commands to backup transactions log data associated with the detected I/O activity to a virtualized location. Backing-up the transactions log data comprises dynamically identifying a mount path location corresponding to the virtualized location, and transferring the transactions log data to the dynamically identified mount path using the one or more native commands. The system can then perform data processing operations (for example, data chunking and deduplicating) on the transactions log data after it is received at the dynamically identified mount path location.

  • Patent number: 11829271
    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to a data protection policy management system (DPPMS) for tuning a data protection policy in events of failures. The DPPMS may detect a failure associated with an application that is protected via the data protection policy that includes settings corresponding to parameters comprising one or more of copy tiers, a data retention interval and a recovery point objective (RPO) for the copy tiers. The DPPMS may determine a type of the failure associated with the application. Further, the DPPMS may select, based on the type of the failure, at least one parameter of the parameters to be tuned in response to detection of the failure. Moreover, the DPPMS may tune the settings corresponding to the at least one selected parameter to adapt the data protection policy.

  • Patent number: 11816092
    Abstract: A system and a method for grouping log lines in application log file is presented. The system uses logging framework code instrumentation in order to obtain a relation between the actual log line and the place in source code from which a method responsible for writing the line has been called. As the all information on the relation is stored in external metadata files, the structure of the log files remains unchanged. Using the above mentioned metadata and a raw log file, each log line in the file can be assigned to a group related to the place in source code from which the line has been logged, by the system. Next such a grouped log file can be displayed to the user in order to simplify the analysis of the application behavior.

  • Patent number: 11762829
    Abstract: A system and method for providing fine-grained access control in a search engine. Access control predicates associated with a search query, including fixed-width and/or variable-width tokens, are received from the search engine, and are formatted in a machine-readable binary format to generate a single byte array. A pre-sorted memory index structure associated with the single byte array is generated, by sorting the access control predicates according to their token width. The pre-sorted memory index structure is merge joined with an uninverted terms index that includes a sorted list of all terms in a field associated with the search query, and a document index mapping each document identifier (ID) to a term ordinal for a specific field.
